This book was a very straightforward read. It is in more or less chronological order from just before WW2 up until the present day. It is a historical account of Bletchley and the work done there, but it is very much told from the perspective of the people who worked there.
Although I might have liked more detail about the technology of code breaking, I am sure that information is available elsewhere. Apart from the specific story about Bletchley, I was also interested in all the other snippets of information about everyday life in wartime England and aspects of the overall story of the war.
I am left thinking that I really must visit the place and Enigma by Robert Harris is now on my reading list.
